Baby I'm Amazed {Jimmy Fallon Romance}

Chapter 39

"Idiot," I muttered.

"Moron," Jimmy muttered back.

I shook my head and rolled my eyes, "How the hell did he miss three basket ingredients?"

"He's Chopped for sure, like, there's no way he's getting through this judging." Jimmy added as we stood in the living room watching as the last two chefs finished the dessert round.

Molly was fixing the back of my gown while Rory stood next to me and secured my low side bun with bobby pins.

"Are we ready to get going?" Allie asked walking into the living room from the kitchen.

"Um," I started once Chopped came back from the commercial break, "just a second."

She came over and stood next to Jimmy, "Are you really going to finish watching this before we leave?"

I smirked and heard Molly and Rory laugh, "He's left off three basket ingredients! We need to see how it ends!"

Allie sighed and plopped down on the couch, "Well I'm gonna get comfy if we're all gonna watch this then."

"I won't want to get back up if I get comfy again," Jimmy said, adjusting the jacket of his tux.

"There, you're good to go," Molly told me coming to stand next to me.

"Thank-you," I said looking at her with a smile, before returning my attention back to the screen.

We all stood in silence as we watched the inevitable happen. Chef John was Chopped.

"Knew it," Jimmy said as he turned the TV off with the remote.

"Are we good now?" Paul asked from the dining room area.

"Yeah, we're good," Jimmy said with a laugh, before he turned to me, "Beautiful as always."

I smiled and looked down at my dress; it was a deep purple floor length gown that was low cut in the front, which ended in between my chest and navel. Which was paired with some Lorraine Schwartz jewels and Louboutin shoes.

"Thank-you," I smiled, "Looking pretty good too, Fallon."

A blush crept up on his cheeks as he smiled, "Well thank-you!"

"Alright, let's get going," Paul said, as we all began filling out of the apartment after him.

--

We arrived at the world premiere of my new movie, All Who Wander at the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York City. Jimmy and I arrived first, with two of my co-stars not too far behind, Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Hemsworth.

Jimmy and I were on the carpet together getting our photos taken when Jennifer snuck in between us causing Jimmy and I to double over in laughter.

"You dork!" I said to her while giggling.

"Shudup you love me!" she yelled with a smile, "Let's take some pictures!" she said putting her arms behind mine and Jimmy's back as she stayed in the middle of us.

We stood posing and making jokes for a few minutes before Chris came over to us.

"Chris, how's it going, pal?" Jimmy asked, extending his hand to shake. Chris grabbed it and shook it with a big smile.

"I'm great! I watched the interview by the way," Chris said once he released Jimmy's hand, "Very well done."

The interview had been played two days prior on TV. It had been just about two weeks since we had filmed it.

"Thanks so much, man. We're just hoping everyone will cool it," Jimmy told him, while people still snapped away.

Chris looked at us and smiled, "I hope they do, you should be allowed to live your life in peace," he told us.

"Basically just tell everyone to fuck off and you'll be golden!" Jennifer added causing me to laugh.

All of the managers came over then and asked us to have just the three of us take photos and Jimmy might do a couple interviews. So it turned into just the three of us posing for a bit.

Our three managers came over and said it was time for individual shots so that took some more time to do. And then I was pulled away for interviews.

Maria Menounos waved at me as I walked over to her, "Hey!" she said with a giant smile.

"How are you?" I asked as we hugged quickly.

"I'm good, and you?" she asked.

I nodded, "Life is good right now."

She smiled and took the microphone from the cameraman, "Ready?" she asked me, I nodded.

"The stars are out for the World Premiere of the highly anticipated movie, All Who Wander! We have one of the stars, who is already generating Oscar buzz, Maggie Atwood! Thanks for stopping by!"

I smiled, "I love talking to you!"

"So what can you tell us about this movie, without giving too much of it away?" she asked then moved the microphone closer to me.

I smiled, "Well, it's thriller about my character Sophie and Jennifer's character Tanya who have been best friends since forever. And then this mysterious character played by Chris comes into the picture and some interesting stuff starts happening. And that's all I'm pretty much allowed to give away," I said with a laugh.

"People have already been giving it a five star rating!" she told me, making me extremely happy.

"Really? Oh my gosh, that's so amazing!" I told her with genuine happiness.

"What do you think of the Oscar buzz it's been generating already?" she asked.

"I don't know!" I said with a laugh, "I've never been nominated so it would be amazing to be nominated! I haven't heard too much about this buzz but it would be amazing. Everyone in the cast and crew worked extremely hard on the film so I would love it for people to recognize them for everything they did."

"Well, we'll let you get going with other interviews! The movie looks incredible, I can't wait to see it!" she smiled.

"Thank-you so much!" I told her as we hugged again.

"I didn't want to mention it on air but great job with the interview with you and Jimmy, it was so romantic. I hope people see it for what it is," she told me quietly.

I pulled away from her and smiled, "Thank-you, that means a lot to me," I said before Allie walked with me down the carpet.

I did a few more interviews that were pretty similar to Maria's. A few differences here and there but nothing major.

I went over to the crowd of people and took some photos and signed some autographs before meeting back up with Jennifer and Chris for some more photo-ops. Then I was able to make my way back to Jimmy who was looking at me with a huge smile.

"You're killing it right now, babe," he told me once I got to him, "Everyone loves you."

I smiled and took the hand he offered me to climb up the steps to the get into the theatre, "I hope you like the movie."

"It's going to be amazing! I know it! I'm so proud of you!" he told me as we reached the top.

I smiled and nudged him, causing him to stop at the top of the steps, "I'm gonna miss you when I'm gone for the next few weeks, you know?" right after the premiere, me, Jen and Chris were heading on a plane and going to Toronto for the premiere, where my family was joining me. After that we were going to England, Italy, Germany, Japan, Australia, Vancouver, and then Los Angeles. Jen, Chris and I had already done some promo around New York with the two of them already being on the Tonight Show with Jimmy to promote the movie, but we decided he would be my last stop, and that would be a week after the movie had already come out. 

He smiled and kissed my forehead, "I'm gonna miss you too, Mags. But hey, you're final interview of the press tour is gonna be with me so that's kinda cool, right?"

I laughed and nodded, "Box of lies right?" I asked smiling, remembering that text conversation.

"Whatever you want," he said, then leaned down to kiss me. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer as we kissed deeply.

"Relax, she's going for two and a half weeks not twenty years," Jennifer called to us as she walked by with a laugh.

We pulled apart and looked over at her as she smiled at us, I literally loved that girl. We had gotten along so well on set, and I was happy to call her a good friend. Chris too.

"Why were you watching?" I called back to her with a laugh.

"It was hard to miss! You were about to have sex on the steps!" she said back as her manager led her into the Theatre, but not before she shot us a smile.

"Ready to go in?" Jimmy asked.

"Ready," I confirmed, taking his hand and walking into the theatre.
